Net Working with alumni----how?

I am a new graduate and wish to apply BB this fall. I am wanting to be in touch with an alumni from my school now. He came to my program to judged a finance case contest last summer. My team actually turned out to be the winner of the contest. After the competition, I had a very short meeting with him and both of us enjoyed it. It has been almost one year already and I just start to send him the first e-mail. I don't know how to start. Please advise me.

Just email him and say "Hi, I'm XXX from XXX University. You may remember me from XXX competition, etc"

Go from there,
